I do but its designed and measured up to my size, but I would suggest checking out the Mountain Man web ring in America there you'll find whole articles about how to make Capotes and Long hunter coats.

If you cant find anything let me know and I'll dig out the link for you.

Hope that helps.

Ive always liked the poncho Clint Eastwood wore in the Good/Bad/Ugly film.
Very easy to make - just cut a head hole in an army blanket !!

The addition of a liner to the Swanndri was something that was inevitable - so you get all the advantages of wool (spark retardant, warmth, etc) plus the added advantages of modern breathable synthetics.


This stuff looks good and I think it could spell the end of carrying separate waterproofs.

once your in there have a look around or go onto their links to related sites and click on blanket brigade link - that would be a good start.
